AAR has expanded its distribution network for original Unison aerospace components to better serve aircraft operators and repair facilities in Europe. AAR, an exclusive supplier of aerospace parts for the Unison distribution channel, is adding inventory at its European Distribution Center located near Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. The new inventory includes turbine ignition systems, engine-dedicated alternators, sensors, switches and wiring harnesses.

AAR Distribution manages the program and new distribution hub, providing supply chain, component repair and parts distribution services to the commercial aviation industry. John Holmes, division president of AAR Allen Asset Management, said, “The European Distribution Center is an important hub within our global supply chain network that allows us to efficiently and effectively support the international aviation community.”

AAR has facilities and sales locations around the world. The company serves aviation, government and defense customers through four operating units: aviation supply chain; maintenance, repair and overhaul; structures and systems; and government and defense services.
